Chapter 100 A few days later, it had nothing to do with him anymore.



Chapter 100 A few days later, he would have nothing to do with her anymore.

Lu Xinyi cried while secretly glancing at Lu Yanzhi.

But all I saw was Lu Yanzhi's cold gaze.

"Xinyi, if you want to gain experience, you can go to any of the major securities firms, public funds, or private funds in China."

"That department originally belonged to the Shi family."

"You have a problem with her, and you're doing it on purpose."

Lu Yanzhi spoke slowly and deliberately, his voice cold.

Lu Xinyi did not respond, but stared at Lu Yanzhi with stubborn anger.

Lu Yanzhi didn't want to pay any more attention to Lu Xinyi.

He finally understood the true meaning of the Spanish bullfighting song he had just heard, as well as the meaning behind Shi Nian's cold gaze when she left.

She has always valued the Shi family, so it's no wonder she's angry at Lu Xinyi's provocation.

Plus, I even saw Han Wei here...

However, even so, Shi Nian should not have splashed Lu Xinyi's red wine in front of everyone.

"Stop thinking such things. And," Lu Yanzhi said, adding, "you should call her sister-in-law."

Lu Yanzhi left after he finished speaking, leaving Lu Xinyi standing there alone.

"ah!"

Lu Xinyi overturned everything on the dressing table.

Lu Yanzhi walked back to his car, where Han Wei waited for him.

"Brother Yanzhi," Han Wei said, looking very anxious, "I'll go explain to Shi Nian that it's because of Li Yanqing..."

But Lu Yanzhi could only look at her helplessly.

“How do you intend to explain this?” Lu Yanzhi said. “She doesn’t know what happened back then.”

“Back then, I didn’t want it to be like that… Brother Yanzhi, I didn’t want it to be like that…” Han Wei cried.

Han Wei cried miserably.

"I know," Lu Yanzhi comforted her, then sighed deeply and said, "Today was just a coincidence, Han Wei, I'll handle this."

...

On the other side.

Shi Nian was driving on the main road.

The surrounding area was illuminated by dim streetlights, with the street scene receding into the distance.

She didn't know where she was going.

She thought of her father again.

She wanted to see Sisi, but she was afraid that her bad mood would affect Sisi.

Just then, her phone vibrated.

Shi Nian glanced at it and saw it was a call from Fu Jinyan.

After composing herself, Shi Nian pressed the call button.

Fu Jinyan immediately launched into a tirade of profanities: "I'm so angry! Damn it, how could Lu Yanzhi be so shameless! He even brought Han Wei along to the event!"

Shi Nian knew that Fu Jinyan was afraid she would hold it in, so he specially called her to scold Lu Yanzhi.

"And that Han Wei too, I've never seen anyone so energetic, wasn't she said she only had six months left!"

Another burst of birdsong and fragrant flowers filled the air, and Fu Jinyan launched into a tirade of curses.

Listening to Fu Jinyan's ever-changing insults, Shi Nian even suspected that he had attended an insult training class, the kind that costs 700 yuan per session.

Thinking about it, Shi Nian found it funny and laughed out loud.

Fu Jinyan on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief.

“It won’t be long,” Fu Jinyan’s voice came. “Only a few days left. After a few days, you and he will have nothing to do with each other anymore.”

Shi Nian calmly looked at the road ahead.

“Yes,” Shi Nianjian replied firmly.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Shi Nian hung up the phone.

The car continued driving on the road, and Shi Nian wandered around the city in the night.

She didn't know where she was going or what her destination was.

Fu Jinyan's call just now seemed to have improved her mood a little, but only a little.

More than twenty days have passed since Lu Yanzhi proposed the divorce.

She once planned to grow the Lu family together with Lu Yanzhi, develop the Shi family, and investigate the truth behind her father's death.

With the Lu family as their backing, and with their mutual affection, everything would have been alright, but now…

Everything has changed.

Lu Xinyi's difficult behavior today is just a minor ripple.

But it still annoyed her.

The car was still driving haphazardly around the city.

Finally, Shi Nian's car stopped in front of a hotel building.

Looking at the light in the room on the third floor of the hotel, and the shadow reflected on the curtains, Shi Nian felt inexplicably emotional.

My mother recently came to City A to complete the adoption procedures for Sisi, and has been staying here ever since.

She found the hotel for her mother; it was a suite, comfortable enough.

However, the relationship between the mother and daughter, who are related by blood, is so distant.

She knew that her father's death affected more than just her.

My mother too.

But for various reasons, in the end, they still ended up like this.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

Shi Nian's phone vibrated.

It was her phone call.

Shi Nian hesitated for a moment, but finally touched the call button.

"Come on up, I see your car," her voice came.

Shi Nian looked up and saw the three windows that were already open, and a woman standing by the window.

"Mm," Shi Nian responded.

She arrived at the suite, and before she could knock, the door was opened from the inside.

The woman who appeared was Shi Nian's biological mother, Zheng Shuhui.

The two exchanged a glance.

But neither of them called out to the other.

Shi Nian couldn't bring herself to say "Mom".

Zheng Shuhui couldn't bring herself to say "Niannian".

The two remained silent, and then she handed Shi Nian slippers.

After changing her shoes, Shi Nian followed Zheng Shuhui to the living room.

The two sat silently on the sofa.

After a long while, Shi Nian spoke first: "After you came to City A, did you visit him?"

“Mm,” Zheng Shuhui replied.

They all knew that "he" referred to their stepfather.

The stepfather in prison.

No, it was his former stepfather; they're divorced.

Thinking it over, Shi Nian said, "I want a divorce."

Zheng Shuhui's expression remained unchanged as she replied, "Mm."

Then there was silence again.

The clock on the wall ticked gently. After some time, Zheng Shuhui said, "I will take care of Sisi's paperwork. You don't need to come here anymore."

This is tantamount to telling them to leave.

Shi Nian looked at Zheng Shuhui.

She looked at it for a long time, then nodded: "Okay."

that's all.

After exchanging a few words, the mother and daughter parted ways.

Before leaving the house, Shi Nian took out all the cash from her bag and placed it in the entryway along with the necklace she had taken off.

Shi Nian drove off again.

She had thought that driving around aimlessly would improve her mood, but now it's even worse.

A night breeze swept away some fallen leaves from the roadside, and Shi Nian felt a little cold.

never mind.

Let's go back.

Take a good bath, get some sleep, and everything will be alright tomorrow.

But as soon as they drove up to the apartment building, they saw Lu Yanzhi's Maybach parked there.

He eventually found her place.

Even though she hadn't told him.

But she knew that if Lu Yanzhi wanted to investigate, it would happen sooner or later.

Shi Nian didn't think too much about it. Instead, she parked the car and got out.

Shi Nian walked straight into the building without looking to the side, but was still stopped.

"Shi Nian." Lu Yanzhi called her name and quickly took two steps to block her way.
